Fruit wines are very good. The give large tastes, as well. Worth stopping by.

Winery on the Gruene is a "custom winery"; they make many types of wines, but do so with juice they receive from many states and foreign countries (like Water 2 Wine). The fermentation and processing of these juices is also fairly rapid. One should not expect at such a winery delicate bouquets and subtle hints of fruits, spices, and minerals. Having said that, given what they are, they do a respectable job. Fair warning: their sweet and fruit infused wines are *far* better than their dry wines. They offer a great wine tasting deal: 4 tastes for $2.00. The ambience is excellent. They serve you at tables, rather than standing at a bar, which is nice. The fruit infused wines are rather good (Orange Sangria was good, and a Mango Chenin Blance, I believe), but, surprisingly, the Port ("Harbor Red") was excellent.
